Description of the problem | On 16th july 2020 while driving bell sounds went off in my car, on dash airbag warning came on and got an onstar alert that airbag malfunction. Onstar said to get it to dealership asap. Yesterday 20th july dealership told me that front passenger seat airbag module, front passenger airbag plate in seat and something else airbag is wrong. Told me not covered under warranty in which since it is a 2018 i couldn't believe it. They said because have 62,000 miles is why. I said this is a safety issue they acknowledged that but said i would need to have it repaired which would cost $1300 without taxes. I called general motors and have a case number. However, not gm nor the dealership nesmith chevrolet, buick, gmc seem to feel this should be a recall or a safety issue that they should be liable for! |
